Hollywood's worst-kept fetal secret - Kerry Washington's bun in the oven - may finally be out of the bag, but there's still something the Scandal star wants to keep under maternity wraps: the sex of her baby.

She and husband Nnamdi Asomugha are "keeping it a surprise," she told Extraat the Globes.

Also a secret: Her due date. "I am, ya know, along. I don't want to give up too much information, but it's going great."

And how is the famously fashionable show dealing with the pregnancy? "We're handling it, as Olivia Pope would say." Costume designer Lyn Paolo "and I are having a really good time in keeping the fashion elevated, but still making room for this little human."

Will retired NFLer Asomugha be doing major daddy duty? "You'll have to talk to him about thatâ?¦He's really good, we're both feeling really blessed."
